Summer safety tips involve a lot of common sense, but in the fall, as the weather cools off, we may become a little more relaxed, and worry less about things like pets becoming overheating or sunburned. But this pleasant little season poses a few threats of its own.

Oh, rats. Literally & Figuratively.

This is the time of year when rodents begin to move indoors. Gross. Super gross.

Even worse, there are rodenticides that some folks use to take them out. A pet owner should never, ever use these products. When ingested by any animal- rat, mouse, dog, cat- these poisons can be deadly.

Know that you may have neighbors who do poison rodents, so do your best to make sure your pet doesn’t eat one. Call the vet immediately should your pet consume rat poison or a poisoned rat. Either way. Gross. Just gross.
